[PATCH 0/2 V3] Improve Coccinelle Parallelisation

From: Sumera Priyadarsini
Date: Wed Oct 07 2020 - 04:14:40 EST


Coccinelle utilises all available threads to implement parallelisation.
However, this results in a decrease in performance.

This patchset aims to improve performance by modifying cocciccheck to
use at most one thread per core by default in machines with more than 4
hyperthreads.
